I never cared for "Just Coolin.'" It came off to me as a generic song made for the purpose of having the obligatory guest appearance from a popular rapper (Heavy D).

C'mon, Naj! It was one of those "Summer Songs" that was mandatory for most artists! It was what it was!

I agree. "Just Coolin'" is the knock. One of the all-time favorite jams from the New Jack Swing period.

"Just Coolin'" was released as a single in January 1989, so it's hard to call a late winter song a "summer jam." But I understand what you mean.

So, where's your list?

Don't you still love him?

Gerald Levert was one of the last rue R&B artist left when he passed away last year. When he performed, he gave you everything, you can tell that he meant what he was saying.

C'mon, dog. "Just Coolin'" was a No. 1 single in March 1989! It wasn't some song that was dying on the vine months after it was released before being discovered.

LOL! No, what I mean is, when summer came, radio stations would pump it every summer after that.

I feel so lucky that I had the chance to see him perform and do his notorious "roll across the stage"! smile

Man, R&B now is so weak compared to artists like Gerald Levert sad
